When Roseanne Barr tweeted something racist and offensive enough to finally catch the attention of her network at ABC, those who were aware of her Twitter antics weren't surprised to hear that her sitcom, Roseanne, had been cancelled.

Roseanne had finally crossed the line when she tweeted about former Obama aide, Valerie Jarrett, saying that, "muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj." Her exit from ABC was incredibly swift following her Tweet, and all of a sudden Roseanne found herself without a television show and a tarnished name.

Fast forward a little over two months, and it appears that Roseanne might be readying her return to television. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Roseanne has had "many" offers to return to TV, though she hasn't pulled the trigger on any of them yet. During an appearance on Rabbi Shmuley Boteach's podcast, Roseanne said, "I’ve already been offered so many things and I almost already accepted one really good offer to go back on TV and I might do it. But we’ll see."

When asked about whether or not she had actually apologized to Jarrett yet, Roseanne claimed that she had not, but that she was "praying for the right words" before speaking to her.

Typically celebrities have to wait at least a little while longer before bouncing back after a racist tirade, but it seems that Roseanne is still a hot commodity for some people. At for ABC, they've been preparing to move on without her in their new Roseanne-less Roseanne spinoff.
